Just finished "The Best American Travel Writing". It is my "purse" book which is one I carry around in my purse for when I go somewhere and am waiting, stuck stopped on the freeway with the car stopped (that has happened to me), or at a restaurant by my self.
It can never be a novel - it may not be opened for a month and that to long for me to remember what has been happening. So it is usually essays, and once and a while short stories (which I am not a great fan off but I do read a few authors.
The two stories I found most interesting were one about a delivery in Antarctica and the one with the best title "A Keilbasa Too Far", about being sick on you travels. May you never experience it.
